These former racehorses are unsuitable for re-homing due to injury, temperament or age but will have a safe home at Greatwood to live out the rest of their days in comfort. Each of these horses is assessed to see if they are suitable to be used in the Horse Power programme to help children with special educational needs, giving them a new focus.
A former racehorse has much to offer after its period of rehabilitation and Greatwood makes every effort to match the right horse with a carer. Greatwood equine management staff carefully vets all applicants to ensure that ultimately both horse and carer have a long and happy life together.
This donation towards the substantial running costs of Greatwood is very much appreciated when an ex-racehorse is re-homed.
If you are interested in rehoming one of our horses, please fill in the form below and we will be in touch as soon as we are able to rehome.
Chessie was rehomed in 2018. Both Chessie and her carer were green when they met but bonded well and were keen to learn together which they have and will continue to do.
